#DoYourJob Trends After Kentucky Clerk Refuses Same-Sex Marriage Licenses

Same-sex marriage supporters rally under the hashtag to demand that Kentucky county clerk issue marriage licenses.

Kim Davis said she was able to deny the licenses "under God's authority," according to the Associated Press. The ACLU of Kentucky filed a contempt motion against Davis this morning in federal court.

The scene at the Rowan County Courthouse this morning was chaotic, witnesses told BuzzFeed News. Some of Davis' supporters clapped as couples were denied marriage licenses, while same-sex couples and their supporters shouted, "Do your job, Kim."
